Talked about
the new work with several people from several areas from my
state of Andhra Pradesh.
Saturn became mad when it see
faithfulness of God's children. It is using all of it
techniques to attract them. This week denomination group
troubled a lot in Ramanjaneyapuram. At the time of worship in
Ramanjaneyapuram church of Christ they sing songs though the
loud speakers along with several musical instruments like drums,
harmony, jaws etc . And speak in the loud speaker with big
voices and even in the middle speech they use instruments. That
is like a musical party. And a lady also spoke in that program.
It is nearer to our church building and where we have no walls
for our building to stop that sounds. It was continued as long
as the worship time. We are very sad for the situation and sorry
for these evil activities to disturb the worship. We are asking
you please pray with us to overcome the activities of Saturn. We
sing with our lips and i preach with out loud speaker. It is
very horrible day . We worship in spirit and in truth. We don't
have peace because of this denominational group.
They are the
denominational people who built their denomination building in a
month. They are very rude and cruel. Their hearts became harden.
They just do it as an entertainment program and also against
the Lord's church in Ramanjaneyapuram. They intentionally doing
these type of unscriptural things. Their intension is to
attract the Christians in to their denomination at any means.
Just they (denominational people) want to tell that we have no
building, (but we have building with out walls), they said if we
come to their denomination you can sit on good floor under the
bright lights, (because we have only one bulb in our church
building) we have no music's, they want to show how melodious if
several instruments are there in the services and they are
arranging meals too. They have loud speaker. People usually like
to sing or speak in loud speakers. And they brought some lady
speakers who has false healing too. I am sad for this
situation. I am trying to make individual visits personally and
try to study them with the word. But the congregation in
Ramanjaneyapuram is faithful and praying. We need your prayers
very much.
